    I love there kit, extraction is spot on etc. There plung/circular saw is spot on for doors. It has a track system that stops splinters and also makes the saw cut 100% straight.

    I can cut 10mm of a door in under 10 secounds. No dust etc.


    Anyone else use this kit?

    There not cheap. I cant remember exactly but i think they start at around £400.

    However mine must be about 8 years old now. I was cutting 15 fire doors a day with it for about 6 months. I use it most days and if you use the extractor with it, well it really is dust free.

    Also the saw can be mounted upside down in a table saw adapter etc.

    also you can use there other tools like there router with the track system or even with the same table -

    and just to add to that. All the tools come in smart boxes. They all lock together so you can use the extractor hoover to wheel a load of tools in one go.

    Or lock the boxes together and carry them !

    Many of our tools are Festool: plunge saw, sliding table saw, rotex sander.
    Expensive, but value for money!
